Area, select an Area Group with multiple Areas. Alternatively come back to 
this step later.

every day, holidays should NOT be ticked. For example, “Always On”. This

If you want the zone settings to change based on a schedule, then select the 
first schedule here. 
If no schedule is set in either the first or second zone profile then the zone will 
be disabled. 
11. If you are setting up a keyswitch zone then the user number field controls

as default User 99.
